What if homosexuals are born that way, and isn't homosexuality just as normal and healthy as heterosexuality?

Although it has been proven scientifically that homosexuality is not genetic,homosexual advocates continue to pound the table with the assertion that they are "born that way". Some people go down the moot road of arguing over this: "Nobody is born gay""Yes they are""No they are not""YES-HUH!""NUH-UH! "...on and on ad infinitum. In order to advance the conversation and find moral clarity on this issue, let's give homosexuals the benefit of the (infinitesimal) doubt.

Homosexual advocates will point to homosexuality in the animal kingdom as justification for their cause, but this is nothing more than an appeal to nature fallacy.EVEN IF someone is born with some ("natural") predisposition, it doesn't necessarily make acting out on that predisposition a good thing (i.e. morally right). Certainly some people are born with predispositions toward things that are deleterious to the individual and to society (e.g. alcoholism, gambling, and other addictive behaviors). We wouldn't encourage those behaviors merely because "they were born with that attraction/proclivity". We don't encourage drug abuse even though one might be born with a propensity towards drug abuse. We encourage self-control because we understand how destructive those behaviors are (the life expectancy of a drug addict is 15 to 20 years after they start being a drug addict).

Consider the following health risks associated with homosexuality:

PHYSICALLY--

The life expectancy for gay and bisexual men is 8 to 20 years less than for men in general,

Consider how staggering that is—Out of a population of 1,000,000 men, about 960,000 will be heterosexual and 40,000 will be homosexual (MSM). If there are 10,000 new HIV cases, 7800 will be from MSM, and 2200 will be from heterosexuals. The ratio of heterosexual to HIV positive would be about 436:1. The ratio of homosexual (MSM) to HIV positive, on the other hand, is 5:1. This means that homosexual males (MSM) are 87 times more likely to contract HIV than heterosexual males.

I could go on and on with the SCIENTIFIC facts that show: Hepatitis, Gonorrhea, Gay Bowel Syndrome, Anal Cancer, and more are much more prevalent in homosexuals than heterosexuals but you can read more facts concerning this at the CDC.

Gay and bisexual woman are found to have several increased health risks over heterosexual women. Heart disease is the #1 killer of all women, but lesbians and bisexual women have a higher rate of obesity, smoking and stress, which are the primary risk factors for heart disease. In addition, lesbian women appear to be at a higher risk for uterine, breast, cervical, endometrial and ovarian cancers. Because gay women are less likely than heterosexual women to have had a full-term pregnancy, they are deprived of the natural hormones released during pregnancy and breastfeeding. These hormones are thought to protect against many forms of female cancers - See more at: http://www.whmcenter.com/lesbians-have-higher-health-risks/#sthash.ZDRcV8l1.dpuf

﻿PSYCHOLOGICALLY--﻿

Someone I worked with was heavily involved in the gay community (her best friend is gay, and they have many mutual friends that are gay). This coworker goes to gay pride parades, gay bars, and even fights for "gay rights." This coworker knew where I stood (on the issue of homosexuality), I knew where she stood and yet we still got along and considered each other friends. She had told me about the many relationships her gay friends have been in (both lesbian and gay males). They have ALL involved physical violence when there is "fighting." This is very telling because if anyone has a motive to bend the truth it would be her--she is an apologist for gays and this fact does not shed a good light on that community. Studies have confirmed what she told me (i.t. that domestic violence is higher among homosexuals).

In their book Men Who Beat the Men Who Love Them: Battered Gay Men and Domestic Violence,D. Island and P. Letellier report that "the incidence of domestic violence among gay men is nearly double that in the heterosexual population."

“There is a general consensus in the scientific literature that greater pathology exists among homosexually-oriented people than among heterosexuals. In fact, it is difficult to find another group in society with such high risks for experiencing such a wide range of medical, psychological, and relational dysfunctions.”--Phelan, Whitehead and Sutton, 2009, p. 53

SPIRITUALLY--“Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.”--Romans 1:26-27“Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.”--1 Corinthians 6:9-10

Conclusions:

The gay gene theory is similar to the theory of evolution. Despite all the evidence to the contrary (the Cambrian Explosion, the programmed language of DNA, and the impossibility of life coming from non-life) the evolutionist has an a priori commitment to a worldview that "cannot allow a Divine Foot in the door."

As we can see from the evidence above, homosexuality is NOT just as "normal and healthy" as heterosexuality. Therefore, those who "believe in God" and think there is nothing wrong with two homosexuals just enjoying "physical intimacy" with each other are like Eve in the garden who thought there is nothing wrong with just enjoying an apple from that one tree. "After all", Eve probably thought, "why would God create me with this desire for apples from that tree? Therefore, it must be good!"

Like the evolutionist, it seems many homosexual advocates are more concerned with clenching on to a worldview that allows them to be their own god, than actually knowing and submitting to the TRUTH of God's design and His moral will (for sexuality).In conclusion, the "homosexuality is natural" argument is nothing more than an appeal to nature fallacy; furthermore, the most relevant question regarding the issue of homosexuality seems to be: "Why do we discourage most forms of deleterious behaviors, but when it comes to homosexuality, we not only excuse, but in many cases encourage this deleterious behavior?"
